TO .ALL WHOM 11' MAY eGONOERN:

Be it known that I, STEPHEN W. R001 of the lt-y, county, and State of 'NewfIork, have invented .a new and improved. Frame for andMeans of Adjusting fNeck-Ties; and I do hereby decline-that the following is e .full and exact description thereof, reference being bad to the accompanying; drawings, and to. the letters of inference marked thereon.

vThe nature of mjinventiori consists in providing the'frame, to which the material'eomposing'. the'neek-tie has hitherto been stitched, with a clasp, by means of which theltie is rendily attached toor detached from the frame, thus necessitating the use of but on'e'freme in connectl'oh with any number of ties, ond .ohviating the necessity of stitching or otherwise pe'rmnnently fastening the tie tothe frame, 3

I'construct my frame in the usual form, as shown at in the accompanytngdrawing, either of metalor of other hardsubstance. I inak'e 1t clasp, as shown MB or C (this clasp may be either entirely'distinct from the frame, as at B, or attached thereto by a hinge, asshown e tiG 1 then lays. simple bow of silk," ol' other suitable material, upon thefra'me, and adjust the "close. The tie is then cotnhlete', as shown at E, the clasp being there represented as covetedlwith the same material as thst'of which the bow is made. D represents the frame, wi h clasp adjusted. l l I What I claim, and desire to secure by Letters' Patent, is-'- Y The c'om binction of the frame A with the clasp, made, det

fns'see n at G, when the'fr'eine A is made as shown, so that ifsends, when: inuso, passnh under the outer ends of the'tnrmdown. collar, wlth \vhich'it is worn, so as to ,hold it in its place, ell substantially as shown and described, and for the purpose specified; v v STEPHEN W; BOO-F,
